When you click on the transferred button to sort files by size, you get a very
odd sort. The file sizes are sorted by ONLY the first leftmost digit (regardless
of how many digits there are)in increasing vaules of only the first digit. Then
within that group with the same leftmost digit, they are sorted in decreasing
values based on the second leftmost digit (regardless of how many digits there
are)!! 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Assume you have several files downloaded with different sizes over a range of
several magnitudes eg., 1k, 21k, 333k, 344k, 1000k.
2.Click on the Transferred button to sort them by size.
3. You will get the following order. 1k, 1000k, 21k, 344k, 333k

Actual Results:  
The files are incorrectly sorted. You will get the following order. 1k, 1000k,
21k, 344k, 333k.

Expected Results:  
You should have the following order for the files:
1k, 21k, 333k, 344k, 1000k
